Rune Energy is the world’s first DC data center for solar and wind.
What’s that mean?
Well, when you’re first to do something, communicating what you do becomes vital. Rune — formerly Liito — needed an ambitious brand to not only cut through a crowded market, but to legitimize their own confidence as a game changer in a storied field.

Discovery & Naming
We hosted a series of interviews with the founding team to hear all sides of the company.
Then, we brought everybody together for an interactive naming workshop. Landed on a core brand idea – energy for the next tomorrow – and a name. And we all had a newfound sense of energy for moving forward.

Visual Identity
Rune Energy symbolizes a sea change in an industry long overdue for one. Their visual identity couldn’t afford to fit right in.
Taking cues from various forms of natural and modern energy, their visual system is appropriate for the marketplace but stands out, flexible enough to work for the now and for the years from now.

You were interested, it was easy to talk to you and, like the way you went about winning the business, indicated to me how you would plan on working with us. We recieved a high level of communication, and much more.

There were really no surprises in our first conceptual meeting, because you had done such a good job of communicating everything throughout the process.

Working with you was such a good fit for us. I would say other companies like us would benefit greatly from what you do. Early stage startups that have created some materials previously, themselves, but are looking to take things to the next level. So much value is added in unexpected ways.

Website
We had the story set. We had the brand personality on paper. Now was time to tighten content and tell that story through the medium a lot of people will encounter first: the website.
Bold headlines, movement and a straightforward self-awareness infuses a — dare we say — energy into a site that stands tall amongst competitors stuck in the past of aerial b-roll and empty language.

Our confidence in sales pitches and attracting new talent, and clarity we gained within our business, just from you asking the right questions.

Results?
Rune Energy now has the confidence to go where they know they can go. Case in point: when most Climate Tech has struggled to raise seed rounds, Rune Energy took their new name and brand to a $7m seed round.
Some would call that a 117x return on investment.
As for us, we can’t wait to see where Rune goes from here.
